What Is Holistic Family Dentistry?

Holistic dentistry, also known as biological dentistry, focuses on the connection between your oral health and the health of your entire body. Instead of just treating dental issues as they arise, we take a proactive approach by using materials and techniques that are gentle on your body and promote long-term wellness. From safe, mercury-free fillings to biocompatible tooth restorations like CEREC crowns, our holistic methods aim to enhance your smile while protecting your overall health.

Frequently Asked Questions

The core philosophy behind holistic dentistry revolves around eliminating sources of chemical and bacterial toxicity from the mouth. Our holistic dentists in East Fremantle, WA, focus on comprehensive health by considering the impact of dental treatments on the entire body. Holistic dental care prioritises treatments and materials that work harmoniously with the body's natural systems. 

Preventing Chemical and Bacterial Toxins

Chemical toxins in dentistry often come from traditional filling materials, such as those containing mercury. On the other hand, bacterial toxins can originate from various sources, including gum disease, infected teeth and partially extracted teeth from previous treatments. If not properly addressed, these toxins can lead to chronic infections and systemic health issues. With holistic dentistry, we focus on preventing these harmful toxins from impacting your dental and overall health. 

Common Holistic Treatments

Holistic dental treatments often include but aren't limited to:

  1. Biocompatible Restorations — These include crowns, bridges, fillings and other restorations made from natural materials like ceramic or composite resin, which are safe for the body and aesthetically pleasing.
  2. Safe Removal of Amalgam Fillings — We can safely remove silver amalgam fillings and replace them with tooth-coloured composite fillings. 
  3. Gum Disease Treatment — Our holistic approach includes personalised care for oral diseases so we can help eliminate bacterial toxins and promote healthy gums.
  4. Infection Management — We provide personalised treatments for infected teeth and ensure any tooth extractions are free from residual bacteria.

  5. Nutritional Counseling — Holistic dentists may provide guidance on diet and nutrition to support oral health and prevent dental issues naturally.

How We Practise Holistic Dentistry

At Dental on George, we've embraced holistic dentistry because we believe in treating the whole person, not just their teeth. Here are a few reasons why holistic dentistry patients continue to choose this type of care for themselves and their loved ones: 

1. Natural, Biocompatible Materials

Holistic dentistry uses safe, biocompatible materials that work in harmony with your body. Whether you need a tooth-coloured filling, dental crown or another restoration, we avoid using metals and chemicals that could pose risks to your health. Instead, we opt for natural, non-toxic materials that provide effective results while safeguarding your well-being.

2. Minimally Invasive Treatments

Holistic family dentistry emphasises prevention and early intervention, allowing us to use minimally invasive treatments whenever possible. We focus on preserving your natural tooth structure and reducing the need for aggressive procedures. We aim to keep your teeth and gums healthy in the least disruptive way while making your dental visits as comfortable and stress-free as possible.

3. Whole-Body Health

Your oral health is a key factor in your overall wellness. Conditions like gum disease have been linked to issues such as heart disease, diabetes and more. By practising biological dentistry, we aim to protect your smile and your entire body so you can enjoy a better quality of life. We take the time to assess your overall health and ensure that our treatments support your long-term well-being.

Holistic Family Dentistry Technology

Digital X-Rays and Sensors

We use digital dental x-rays and sensors because they offer a safer, faster and more precise way to assess your oral health. 

Digital x-rays and sensors provide numerous benefits for our patients, including:

  • Reduced radiation exposure compared to traditional x-rays
  • Detailed, high-quality images for more accurate diagnoses
  • Faster image processing, allowing for quicker treatment planning
  • Enhanced ability to detect early signs of dental issues
  • Improved precision in creating personalized treatment plans
  • Environmentally friendly, as no film or chemicals are needed

 

Rotary Endodontics

Rotary endodontics uses an electric-powered hand tool with flexible, nickel-titanium instruments that are more precise and effective at cleaning and shaping the canals. With this technology, patients can benefit from improved precision, enhanced comfort and quicker recovery times. 

Intraoral Cameras

Intraoral cameras are a valuable tool in our diagnostic process. These small, high-resolution cameras allow us to capture detailed images of your teeth and gums, helping us identify issues early and explain treatment options clearly.
